Estimating The Material  You Need

TO FIGURE AREA OF RECTANGLE:

MULTIPLY THE LENGTH, WIDTH AND DEPTH (ALL IN FEET) OF THE AREA TO BE FILLED, THEN DIVIDE THAT BY 27 CUBIC FEET TO GET THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF CUBIC YARDS IN THE AREA YOU ARE FILLING

LENGTH (FEET) X WIDTH (FEET) X DEPTH (FEET)  = TOTAL CUBIC YARDS

NOTE:  WHEN ORDERING, PLEASE ALLOW FOR ADDITIONAL MATERIAL TO COMPENSATE FOR LOSS OF VOLUME DUE TO COMPACTION METHOD AND TYPE OF MATERIAL.

TO FIGURE AREA OF CIRCLE:

DIVIDE DIAMETER IN HALF TO GET THE RADIUS.
MULTIPLY RADIUS BY ITSELF (R2)
MULTIPLY TOTAL BY  3.14
MULTIPLY BY DEPTH IN FEET TO GET CUBIC FEET.
DIVIDE BY 27

EXAMPLE:  18' X 3' DEEP

DIVIDE 18' IN HALF = 9'
9' X 9' = 81 SQUARE FEET
81 X 3.14 = 254.34 = AREA OF CIRCLE
254.34 X 3' (DEPTH) = 763.02 CUBIC FEET
763.02 DIVIDE BY 27 = 28.26 CUBIC
YARDS

NOTE:  WHEN ORDERING, PLEASE ALLOW FOR ADDITIONAL MATERIAL TO COMPENSATE FOR LOSS OF VOLUME DUE TO COMPACTION METHOD AND TYPE OF MATERIAL.
